Manchester United hosts Sheffield United in round 31 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Wednesday, June 24th at Old Trafford (Manchester)
After the resumption of the championship, Manchester United played against Tottenham in London. And it was losing there until the 80th minute (1-0). However, the Devils forced the Spurs to make a mistake, and they gave away a penalty, which the Reds converted and brought the match in a draw. In general, Man United looked better than the hosts did, but the defense still made the 31st failure in the championship.

Sheffield is a newcomer to the Premier League. More precisely, he has not been there for 13 years. Considering that the Blades’ budget is one of the smallest among all the championship teams, experts predicted them a fight for survival before the season. And contrary to this prediction, Sheffield takes the 7th line in the standings and has good chances to gain a ticket to the Europa League. Truth be told, the Blades managed to earn only one point in two matches after quarantine and did not score a single goal, but not everything is lost yet. Sheffield is only two points behind the same Man United. And in case of victory in the upcoming match, it will outrank the competitor.
I don’t know about the victory, but the Blades are capable of scoring at least one goal. Yes, Sheffield's attack was silent in the last two matches in a row. But it scores very often in away matches. The Blades prefer to play defense first, and it will be so in the upcoming game. Manchester will attack, Sheffield will fight back, and the men of Chris Wilder often catch rivals on counterattacks. The Blades scored in 10 out of 15 away matches. And the defense of the Red Devils concedes regularly. As I have already noticed above, Manchester conceded 31 goals in 30 rounds. In a meeting of the first round, the Blades sent three goals to the Devils’ net, and they may well score at least one at Old Trafford.
Prediction for the match: Sheffield United to score over 0.5 goals
